Naenae redevelopment plan gets green light

Reporter Community News

Hutt City Council has given the green light to the Naenae Town Centre Spatial Plan.
It is a significant step forward in the rejuvenation of Naenae and will complement the construction of the new Naenae Pool which is planned to start in the second half of next year.
Council has agreed to explore:
* The provision of housing within the Naenae town centre
* An extension from Rātā Street to Vogel Street – service lane for possible supermarket
* Retail on Everest Avenue with an upgraded streetscape and parking layout
* Development of community spaces to activate the heart of Hillary Court
* Expanded square/plaza between library and the former Naenae Post Office Building
* Supermarket on part of the site of the former pool – Walter Mildenhall Park
* Future overbridge to railway station and Oxford Terrace

What do you think of these plans?

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.

This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.

We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚

Want the details? The Post has you covered.
